Partners for Parks
Description: As a partner, we will work together to keep our parks and communities safe and looking great. Partners for Parks volunteers monitor their park's conditions and report damages or other issues to CSD. Partners typically visit their park on a regular basis and spend a few hours a month committed to monitoring their park.
If you'd like to contribute to the continued care of a park in your neighborhood, please contact Miko Daniels at (916) 405-5666 and become a partner today.
